MY 10,000× DIMENSIONAL SYSTEM

One-Sided

Immediately, the Djinn gave the go-ahead, and all his companions backed away and gave the two fighters a large amount of space.

From the stronghold, the soldiers noticed that things were about to get heated, and the atmosphere turned tense. However, it wasn't because they were worried about Kim losing, far from it.

'Hopefully, we don't end up as collateral damage.' That was what most of them were scared of. Then again, they had no reason to worry as the fortress was more durable than that.

'Judging by her body structure, she's most likely extremely agile, so my priority will be to remove her ability to pick up spee-' The Djinn who had been watching Kim closely wasn't able to finish his train of thought.

A fist crashed right into his featureless before he could even react, and his body shot away like a cannonball.

No one was able to react properly as it had been that fast, and it was only when they all heard a loud collision where the Djinn's body had been planted into the side of a distant mountain did they realize what happened.

'What the-' The Djinn was still reeling from the impact as it tried to pick itself up. It hadn't sensed any spatial fluctuations, so she hadn't teleported. Was that simply her raw speed?

It couldn't dwell, however, as Kim was upon it once more.

It caught a brief flash before its face was grabbed, and the next thing he knew, his body was being smashed across the ground as Kim ran at absurd speeds.

'She's... too fast!' The Djinn exclaimed as he tried to mobilize his Mana, but Kim gave him no time as she spun her body and threw him with incredible force.

His body smashed through several mountains, and before he could process what happened, Kim was already above him with both her legs pulled back. She kicked downwards and smashed his body into the ground with horrific force, which caused the ground to explode.

'Ngh! My barrier is barely keeping up!' The Djinn was getting increasingly frustrated, but Kim was simply too fast. If not for his Transcendent barrier, he'd have taken serious damage already.

Kim was about to unleash another barrage of fierce attack, but her ear twitched and she flashed away just as a massive tornado spawned directly on the Djinn made completely of wind blades that shredded everything in the vicinity.

Her tail swayed as she crouched down, almost getting on all fours as she watched the development with quiet excitement.

The Djinn stood up and released a torrent of wind from his body that was absorbed into the tornado. Using the brief respite the tornado brought him, he gave himself time to think.

'She's fast, overwhelmingly so. I can't get her to get a hold of me again.' It thought and rubbed a hand across his chest, which had a clear depression that was slowly filling out. Even with his Transcendent barrier, Kim's last attack still dealt heavy damage.

'The question is, how do I restrict her speed? This tornado was totally spontaneous, but she evaded it with ease.' He mused as he kept his eyes on Kim, who simply observed him through the tornado. The sight of her glowing slitted pupils watching him intently through a tornado that could slice apart an ordinary planet was certainly unnerving, but he didn't let it get to him.

'No matter, I'll just have to tire her ou-...!'

"You're taking a lot of time," Kim whispered into his ear softly, and he shuddered.

But how was that possible? He was still looking at her through the tornado. It couldn't have been an illusion. The Aura she gave off was too precise.

Was it a clone? Maybe. But how did its defense get penetrated? Did she teleport? But he felt no spatial fluctuations.

What the Djinn didn't know was that Kim who was now an Aetherveil Panther now possessed the Aether attribute. Which among many things, allowed her to phase through things.

So she simply phased through the wind and appeared next to the Djinn. The being it was looking at was indeed a clone she had set down, and her overwhelming speed allowed her to get close undetected.

The Djin tried to collapse the tornado inwards to surround Kim with attacks from all sides, but she didn't let it.

Her palm appeared in front of his chest and she said calmly.

"Kinetic Release." Then she jabbed it forward.

If the Djinn had eyes, they would have gone wide and Kim unleashed more force in that single attack than she had since the fight started. Which hadn't been up to two seconds.

His Transcendent barrier was blown through completely and Kim's palm made contact with his chest and released all the force.

If one remembered, Kim also had the kinetic attribute, and one of the ways she applied it was by accumulating kinetic energy as she ran. When it had been accumulated to a satisfying degree, she would release all of it in a single but at her opponent. Which is what she was doing here.

Again, the fight hadn't gone on for long, but her absurd speed allowed her to cover vast differences in extremely short amounts of time. So despite the fighting having barely started, the kinetic energy she'd accumulated was truly terrifying.

There was a brief pause before something flew at impossible speeds, and a moment later, the ground was destroyed as if something massive had sliced through it, throwing massive ice chunks into the air and leaving a messy ravine on the floor, snow dust slightly obscuring everything.

When the mist cleared. The Djinn's figure was revealed. Its body which was made of highly condensed wind was now slightly unstable, and there was a palm-shaped hole in his chest that was slowly closing up.

"..." The Djinn quietly rose and Kim's ear twitched as she observed, not rushing forward this time. However, her eyes gleamed with anticipation.

Without saying anything, the Djinn raised one of its hands and the windy area suddenly became worse.

The other Djinns that had barely been keeping up with the battle exclaimed as they immediately noticed what he wanted to do.

"Turbulent Cataclysm." One of them muttered as the move was being prepared.

Within a moment, the skies had darkened as dense black clouds formed and blocked out the realm's equivalent of a sun.

Then, hundreds of massive twisters which were dozens of times larger than a category 5 hurricane each descended like black pillars.

The landscape immediately suffered from their combined force as each twister tried to suck in everything in its path, and the Djinn had to activate various barriers on their vessels to prevent them from being destroyed.

The stronghold also activated its barrier to protect itself and its inhabitants.

'She isn't fazed even after all this.' The Djinn thought darkly as Kim simply stood in front of it with that same anticipatory gleam in her eyes. She was completely unperturbed by the terrifying twisters that were sucking up everything in their path.

Still, it couldn't stop its attack now.

He let out a powerful yell as wind blades longer than cities descended from the sky on Kim's position. However, despite their size, they were not slow by any means, and they completely surpassed the speed of any wind blades the Djinn had released before.

They weren't just bigger either as each one was capable of slicing through concepts and causing irreparable damage to the world.

Kim looked at all of this, and her cat-like smile turned into a grin. Electricity danced in her eyes as she started to... warm up.

She hopped from one foot to another and cracked her neck, not looking even the least bit concerned by the terrifying attacks that were about to land on her.

As she warmed up, sparks of lightning started to dance around her body, becoming increasingly violent, until...

BOOM!

Electricity erupted from her body in the form of a shockwave and shattered the ground beneath her.

At that very moment, the world seemed to slow down in her eyes. The twisters, the wind blades, everything seemed to move at a snail's pace to her.

With a wide grin on her face, her body blurred as she moved.

From an outsider's point of view, they would have seen the terrifying attacks descending on Kim, then the next moment, they'd see all the twisters, the wind blades the dense black clouds, all be sliced apart by vibrant blue electricity in the shape of claws.

'... What...?' The Djinn was stunned.

One moment, its attacks had been about to land on Kim. It had a feeling she would avoid them somehow, so it was quietly preparing something else.

Yet Kim simply vanished from his line of sight, and so did all his attacks, completely eviscerated in an instant.

He couldn't fathom it. How? How was a being that hadn't Transcended possess such speed? Such strength.

Then he became aware of the claw marks on his chest. Kim clearly hadn't limited her attacks to just destroying the attacks the Djinn released.

Having her bloodline evolved, coupled with her Totality Physique, four attributes that complimented each other to an extreme degree, having access to Void-Forged Mana, and equipment that had been forged by Christopher personally before getting enhanced by the Dimension tens of thousands of times, Kim's strength wasn't something that could be quantified by her rank alone. The same applied to everyone else within the cohort. It was just that Christopher made it seem like they weren't all that, otherwise, they weren't ones to be messed with.
